The Franklin Theatre is a wonderful, amazing, and beautiful venue. It is a small, intimate, comfy, and quaint little retro theater with an art deco-inspired historic feel from the 1930s and 40s. It hosts live concerts, movies, and fun events. The sound is great, and stars interact with the audience. The staff is friendly and helpful. It is located conveniently on historic Main Street with plenty of good restaurants nearby, and there are no huge crowds or traffic after the show. The theater has concessions and alcohol, including pizza and popcorn, though the pizza was not very good and buttering the popcorn was difficult. The seats are old, narrow, and uncomfortable, requiring wider individuals to squeeze in. Some attendees noted that loud talking during concerts can make the show hard to enjoy. Other than that, it is a beloved and favorite venue.
Cute place. Great acoustics! Saw the Box Tops on Friday. They are better now than when they started. But another treat was the bar tender. Hilarious!! Guy can make A drink! I wasn’t even considering having a drink until I saw the digital menu he MADE! Delicious house drinks, humor, and the creativity of the menu.

First time at the Franklin Theatre. Very comfortable seating and very friendly staff! Free refill on soft drinks. We enjoyed the performance by the Gatlin Brothers!

There just isn't a better place to watch a movie. You are encouraged to dress up like the characters in the movie and have a great time. Great staff and service.
